A Prayer for the Election of a Minister

Almighty God, giver of every good gift:  Look graciously on your church, and so guide the minds of those who shall chose a rector for this parish, that we may receive a faithful pastor, who will care for your people and equip us for our ministries; through Jesus Christ our Lord.  Amen.

St. Peter's was the second Episcopal Church established in Tennessee, being formally organized on June 16th, 1828, one year before the Diocese itself was formed. Six former rectors have served the Church as bishops: James Hervey Otey, Bishop of Tennessee; Leonidas Polk, Bishop of Louisiana; Thomas Carruthers, Bishop of South Carolina; Fred Gates, Suffragan Bishop of West Tennessee; Frank K. Allan, Bishop of Atlanta; and Robert G. Tharp, Bishop of East Tennessee. The first church building was located on Garden Street. The present edifice, begun in 1860 was not completed until 1871, after the Civil War. In 1926 the church interior was renovated to appear as it does today, with the enlarged split chancel, rood beam, and the carved lectern and pulpit. The parish house was erected in 1924. Additional classrooms and offices were added in 1964.
